ABC had 50 cameras covering this game; thats a lot of cameras and people working those cameras. Funny how ESPN did Mack Brown a huge favor by having him host Coaches’ Film Room— Brown is the coach at North Carolina now. Good exposure for his recruiting.

12) Alabama 45, Oklahoma 34— Back-door cover by the Sooners, who trailed 28-0 two minutes into the 2nd quarter. Game wasn’t as close as final score indicates; Alabama averaged 11.7 yds/pass attempt and converted 7-10 on third down.

11) Clemson-Alabama will play for the national title in Santa Clara, CA, of all places; if you care about such things, Crimson Tide opened as 6.5-point favorites.

10) Kentucky 71, Louisville 58— These teams are both really young. Interesting when Jay Bilas was saying how a Kentucky player transferring to Washington helped the Wildcats, because it opened the door for another player to step in and now he is more comfortable in that role. It is possible for a team to have too many talented players- it squelches team chemistry.

9) Florida 41, Michigan 15— Wolverines lost 62-39 to Ohio State, then got drubbed here, not the best ending to Jim Harbaugh’s season. When four starters sit a bowl game out to preserve their health for the next level, thats a death knell for that team.

In four years under Harbaugh, Michigan is 3-9 vs Michigan State, Ohio State and in bowls.

8) New Jersey Giants’ WR Jawill Davis dislocated his kneecap while dancing in the Giants’ locker room this week. Seriously, he did.
